>>>The Mother Of All CRAGAR SS WHEEL Threads<<<

About 1975.-MIKE

 

I've got 2 of them (8 inch width) with good 205/65 tires. Says they fit 4.5, 4.75 & 5.0 bolt centers with 1" x 3/4" slotted lug holes. Would love to find a new home for them.

 

mine....

 

I second that!

 

Heres my 62 bird homemade roadster with my first attempt at a carson style top lol have had a lot of fun with this one

 

X2.................I knew there was a reason why I liked you Pete..........you speak the truth

Miserable ol' bugger, isnt he?

 

"Oh, these are the worst-looking wheels I ever saw. What, when you buy wheels like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh? Oh, it looks good on you though."

 

here is my K1

 

Camping on the fairgrounds in ST Paul at the Street Rod Nats.
I think the year was 1979



15X4 cragar S/S fronts
and 15X10 Cragar S/S rears with N50 Mickey Thompsons.

 

Awesome Willys, badazz stance... w/Cragars of course...

 

A photo (or 2) that I came across on the net.

 

A crappy shot of my OL 55 from the mid 70's..........

 

I was there in '79 !
Do you have any other snap shots of it to share?

 

That wheelie picture is too badass! NICE


TRADITION NEVER DIES!

 

Still sporting the original Cragars since the early 70's. Always loved the look and the attitude.

 

I love that this thread keeps going!!!

This is one of my favorites...

 

1934 oldsmobile
starting to have some rust issues with them but they match the deteriorating 1989 candy apple paint job

 

Crappy shot of the car with the barely visible Cragar's but that's my folks with my uncles '65 Formula S Barracuda. Mom and dad are both gone but my uncle still has the 'cuda and it's still running the same wheels and original paint.

 

That is cool history! I'm guessing blue line tires in this photo?

Thinking back, I thought they were red lines but I'm color blind so I really don't know for sure? I swear I can recall he and dad talking about the red lines he put on it when he bought the Cragars, but that was a hell of a long time ago.

I was 9 when he bought the car in '65 and my uncle lived next door to us in Lakewood. When he was in 'Nam his mom would drive the car once a week to keep everything happy. She was tiny and had to slide the seat all the way forward to reach the pedals and sit on a phone to see over the dash. She took me a few times with her. That pic was taken at our little place in Bullhead City Az on the river.

 

I always thought they looked at home on early 60's Fords.

 

Liked them then (1964) & like them now! Had some on a '55 Handyman in '65. After looking at all these pictures, I might have to get some for the '57. Had a set of knock offs (Appilance) that came on a '57 Ranchero that I bought a couple of years ago.
